Lincoln Riley to USC

Irrelevant. Stop trying to pass off PAC as being as difficult as SEC. Nobody is buying it.
did i say as difficult?
it has its own difficulties.
thats why in the BCS and playoff eras you have
8-0 UCLA, 8-0 USC, 8-0 USC, 9-0 Oregon, 5-0* USC 5 total
8-0 Tennessee 8-0 Auburn, 8-0 Alabama, 8-0 Florida, 8-0 Alabama, 8-0 Auburn, 8-0 LSU, 8-0 Alabama, 8-0 Alabama, 8-0 LSU, 10-0* Alabama, 8-0 Georgia 12 total


but no keep telling everyone its harder to get through the SEC unscathed.
 
Perceived and actual weakness of the PAC.
There’s been only one 1-loss power conference champion that hasn’t made the playoffs and that is 2014 Baylor. So you are full of shit.

Don't post dumb stuff.

Additional 1-loss conference champs left out include TCU and Ohio State.

TCU wasn’t a conference champion they lost the head to head. I was wrong about Ohio State.

The BigXII declares the conference champ. They chose to make TCU a conference champ.

Just stop, already. Nobody is buying your bilge. The SEC is MUCH more difficult a conference.
 
I didn’t say zero affiliation to universities. The néw union will have power to negotiate federally. The states will have to comply or not join the union. And they’re not going to do that.
They wouldn’t want to disrupt anyhow, because the cfbu is going to be a windfall for the schools as they will be able to earfuck the media for broadcast rights, etc
But that doesn’t make any sense especially saying states will comply. What exactly do you mean when you federally? And no, a super union won’t be able to “earfuck for media rights”. You would have a point if you are willing to have the University of Texas brought you to Amazon then ok.

You’re starting to get it.

2 things:

1. The post quoted is just another version of the "everybody knows" defense. Doesn't fly.

2. While the numbers don't quite add up to what Oly wants them to, it does show a couple similarities between the conferences. That is that both conferences are very top heavy and need their "flagship" program (USC for the PAC, Bama for the SEC) to be good to be at their best as a conference. Of the PAC's 5 teams to complete an unbeaten conference schedule...3 of those were accomplished by USC and of the 12 times it was done in the SEC, 5 were Alabama.

Right now, the SEC is the tougher conference and I don't think that's particularly debatable. But if USC can get back to standard and Oregon doesn't drop off, we could see the gap start to close a good bit.

The original statement was to the effect that the path to the playoffs for the new coach is easier at USC, which IS the traditional power in the PAC rather than Oklahoma headed into the SEC where coach would have to deal with THEIR perennial powers, of which Oklahoma hasn't really been successful in competing lately.
